My mother, who is in her early 70's, is diabetic and had high cholesterol. She had been taking Lipitor and the doctor increased her dosage. She was experiencing muscle pain for some time, especially when she woke in the morning. The muscle pain worsened and her muscles became very weak. She had been complaining to her doctor for some time. It took a chiropractor to suggest it was the Lipitor. Her doctor finally ordered blood work and her enzyme levels were at 9500. She was immediately hospitalized, tests run and IV's given to flush the Lipitor from her system. She was expected to slowly recover. After weeks, her levels dropped to 6500 then began to rise. Her doctor now says her muscle damage is permanent and plans to give her prednisone to stop the inflammation. This muscle damage is a terrible "side effect" for a drug that was supposed to help her. She can hardly get up or down from a sitting or lying position, can hardly walk and her lifestyle has been severely curtailed. She is also exhausted all the time.

My sister at 39 years old recently died from the condition called pulmonary thromboembolism caused by the use of Yaz. Please if you are taking this pill and are experiencing anything negative from it, get off of it immediately. I am currently seeking legal counsel for my sisters death, I believe it is unfair that a product like this can take a human life, and no-one will be held liable. I have been told that it will be virtually impossible to bring a lawsuit against a product that has been FDA approved. My sister left behind three children who love, miss and still needed her. If anyone can give me some type of direction on how to bring a lawsuit against the manufacturer of this product please contact me asap.

Hi, I am 25. I have taken omeprazole 20mg. for 4 months for my GERD, and after the fourth month, I started having these abnormal heartbeats. I am really worried if these are side effects of omeprazole, and if this medicine may cause permanent damage to the heart. So I decided to see my PCP and requested a change in medication, so he prescribed me 6 month-refills of Aciphex 20mg. It’s my second week now, and I feel this weird itchy feeling inside my chest. I feel like I am always tired, and breathe hard than usual. Id this a side effect of Aciphex? Should I stop taking Aciphex? And does achiphex damages the heart muscle, or cause CAD?

Hello everyone,

Just like all of you, I too googled this strange indentation in my left buttocks and found this site. I suspected when it first showed up that it may have something to do with a shot from my Dr. because the indentation was strangely in the same spot as my last shot. I have received several Kenalog shots over the past couple years for chest congestion and sinus related symptoms that typically drive me to calling my family practice doctor. Although he regularly administers Kenalog, I have had know reason to doubt his treatment as my history with him has been relatively good. However, he is not the one administering the shots, his young nurse it the one (less than a year out of school). Anyway, I too, like many of you am going to look into a class action lawsuit and/or my own legal counsel. If there is anyone out there who has gotten any positive feedback from a lawyer willing to take this on, please contact me for testimonial. This is not flattering and moreover, after reading the many previous entries, I am downright scared. Also, please advise is there is any known treatment to help reduce further reduction of tissue in this area. Thank you very much for reading and for the continued entries after this one.

At the beginning I had no effects. But then by the seventh, I had bad nausea, headaches, joint pain in both of my knee caps, sleeping problems, weakness, sweats, bad dreams, fever, severe stomach cramping.

In my opinion, this drug should be completely taken off the market. It not only affects you, but the ones you love too.

If I don't feel better once I stop the medication, I will seek legal counsel.
